MarcheGem in EugeneMy fifth visit in as many years, and Marche still comes through. They service my foodie husband and vegetarian godson equally well.5/17/2013 12:00:00 AMnice mother's day dinnerGreat oysters, as always. Over-expensive wine list, as always, but decent wine by glass and cocktails selections. Steak tartare and tenderloin were excellent.5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMShould have had a Marche burgerGreat eats, excellent service, one problem OpenTable could solve: I made rez for 2, then added special instruction mentioning baby and requesting a high chair. Marche didn't seem prepared for 2 plus; it isn't a 'family restaurant with lots of crazy stuff on the walls' so they didn't have enough high chairs to go around.
Server was a dad and made us feel welcome as we improvised5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMMarche' Never DisappointsThis was a repeat visit to Marche'...for a friend's birthday celebration. Our server was great. The food was awesome as usual. I had the oysters on the half shell with the arugula salad and then the beef tenderloin. The oysters from Puget Sound were super fresh with a unique and flavorful sauce. The tenderloin was exceptional in a superlative mustard sauce. Others in our party had the salmon, the rabbit or the souffle' and all were impressed with their selections. Everyone tried the desserts to very favorable reviews. The creme brulee was a standout. I would also point out tat the savory beignets were also a big hit with my spouse for a starter. The venue is a standout on the Eugene dining scene. Go there; you will have a good time!5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent foodThis is the 3rd time I've eaten at Marche. I always order one of the fish dishes and once again, the chef prepared an incredible dish. We will be back next time we come to Eugene!5/10/2013 12:00:00 AMWe had our anniversary dinner.We had our anniversary dinner. Everything was great! I had the braised lamb.

Can't wait to visit Eugene again!4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMUnexpected find!Dined at Marche mid week. Place can sit quite a few people but was pretty empty that day. Overall a very pleasant dinner. Bone Marrow, Moulet Frites, Charcuterie followed by Rabbit Roulade and Beef Tenderloin. Everything was excellent. Sommelier recommended a bottle of Bucklin Cab - cheaper than what I had picked and very good. Attentive and pleasant service!
So much for the food. Ambiance a "C" at best. It seems when they get busy it would be loud and crowded. As so often a few tables that simply should not exist in a good restaurant. The open kitchen, while interesting to observe, needs better ventilation. The whole place smelled like a food truck.
In all I definitively would go back4/16/2013 12:00:00 AMWe have wanted to go for yearsWe have wanted to go for years but never found the time whenever we went to Eugene! And as we are Volunteers for the UO Track Club, it was too late after the meets!....since this Meet was over at 4:30, we knew we could do it.....so, I booked in Feb. for 6 April!...and booked a hotel, too!
It was a lovely evening with delicious food and gracious service....we will definitely arrange another evening!
